Originally, Lin Zheng thought that he was already anxious enough.
What I didn't expect was that Eternal Pictures would be even more anxious than me!
Just as he was busy preparing for the filming of "Mr. Zombie 2".
Robert, the head of the Daxia branch of Eternal Pictures, suddenly called.
He also told him that all versions of "The Grudge" in various countries have been produced and sent to his mailbox, hoping that he could take the time to take a look.
If there are no problems, Eternal Pictures will officially start the announcement.
Fortunately it was noon.
After a whole morning of intense shooting, the crew had already begun to take a break for dinner.
Therefore, Lin Zheng did not waste time.
He opened his mailbox directly, and after some searching, he found the exact location of the island country version.
Then, turn on double speed and click to watch.
He mainly wanted to see if the movie had been tampered with by Eternal Pictures.
The translation is accurate or not.
After all, although the general plot, settings and even scenes of this movie of his are the same as the original
But there are also some slight changes, and among these changes, the targeting of island countries is too obvious.
And it is absolutely impossible for people in island countries to accept it.
If he were to seek help from an island country for distribution, he would definitely be rejected without even thinking about it.
Even Eternal Pictures is likely to face some pressure if it wants to successfully distribute the film in the island country.
If not, they almost monopolize the film and television industry in the island country, and it would be almost impossible for them to successfully distribute it.
So Lin Zheng naturally had to check it carefully.
Moreover, he will only check the island country's version.
This is called precision sniping!
Of course, Lin Zheng is not worried at all about language issues.
After having the system for so long, he has already become proficient in all languages.
These things are all rewards that Lin Zheng doesn't like at all.
This is the only time it can be used a little bit.
Snap!
Next to him, a figure sat down and stayed there without saying a word, watching the screen of "The Grudge" on the computer with Lin Zheng.
It was Zhang Xirou holding Xiaomi in her arms.
But today, in addition to Xiaomi, she also held a pot of green plants in her arms.
It was the one that bloomed from the system's treasure chest just after Lin Zheng came back from the dead. According to legend, it was a spiritual flower that could absorb the owner's luck and evolve.
Because the first ability of this spiritual flower is to capture strange things.
Therefore, Lin Zheng, who already had yin and yang eyes at that time, did not take this thing seriously at all.
Plus, in order to protect your luck.
Therefore, Lin Zheng directly changed hands and gave it to Zhang Xirou.
And Zhang Xirou also attaches great importance to this spiritual flower.
Even though he knew it could help him catch strange things, he always kept it in the room and took good care of it.
As long as I have time, I have to water it almost every morning, and when the weather changes, I will bring it into the house.
Sunbathing is even more essential and is almost never forgotten.
Even if Lin Zheng said that this is a spiritual flower and does not need to be taken care of by ordinary means, it would have no effect at all.
Zhang Xirou just sat next to Lin Zheng. After half a minute, she still had no intention of leaving...
Lin Zheng had to pause, turned around and looked carefully, and asked: "What's wrong? Is there any result?"
This "it" naturally refers to Linghua.
Since getting this flower, Zhang Xirou has never brought it out.
But this morning, she changed from her normal behavior and insisted on bringing the spirit flower out.
When Lin Zheng asked about it, she said that she felt that Linghua was about to activate its second ability.
In order to avoid any unexpected situations, she took it with her.
After all, she was with Lin Zheng all the time. In this way, even if something unexpected happened, she didn't need to worry at all.
Hearing Lin Zheng's question, Zhang Xirou nodded, glanced left and right, and then lowered her voice, somewhat mysteriously, but also somewhat doubtfully, and said:
"Yes, yes, but...it seems a bit strange..."
"strangeness?"
Lin Zheng couldn't help but frown, and moved closer to Linghua to take a look.
At this time, both the branches, leaves and flowers of this flower are all green.
He has grown much taller than before.
Moreover, the second flower bud actually bloomed.
It is different from the branches and leaves that are as crystal clear as jasper.
The flowers are also green.
But the petals seemed to be coated with a thick layer of powdery substance.
It looks extremely gentle and delicate.
But in fact, this is just an appearance.
There is no actual pollen present.
"There's nothing strange about it..."
Lin Zheng couldn't help but say after observing for a while.
Zhang Xirou lowered his head, his face slightly tangled.
After a long time, she spoke again: "It's its second ability..."
"Is there any problem with the second ability?" Lin Zheng asked.
Zhang Xirou glanced at him, with an expression on her face that she was hesitant to speak.
But in the end, she didn't say anything, ignored Lin Zheng's obstruction, and left with the spirit flower.
"What's so embarrassing to say?"
Watching Zhang Xirou slowly disappear from sight with firm steps.
Lin Zheng couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
"Could it be..."
Somehow, he suddenly thought of Black Cat Xiaomi's second talent.
If the second ability of this spiritual flower is of the same type as Xiaomi’s second talent.
According to Zhang Xirou's temperament, she might be embarrassed to say it out loud.
"Forget it, let's wait until we have a chance to ask again."
Lin Zheng put this matter behind him for the time being, and then started playing the music on his computer again.
After a detailed inspection, it is basically confirmed that there are almost no problems with the version that will be released in the island country.
For other countries, Lin Zheng naturally didn't bother to check.
I called Robert directly, thanked him, and discussed a few words about future publicity.
Then, we started to continue working on the zombie crew.
In the plot to be filmed today, there will be many bats appearing.
At the same time, there will also be the bat demon who cooperates with the Western zombies after Lin Zheng revised the plot.
If it were any other ordinary crew, they would definitely have to resort to post-production special effects at this time...
Or just grab some bats and use close-ups to piece together the effect you want.
But for Lin Zheng, there is no need for such trouble.
He told the crew that he would cast a spell to summon a swarm of bats.
At the same time, he will also use magic to conjure a bat demon.
Then, he asked Brother Ji, who had asked for leave this morning due to physical discomfort, to use his abilities with confidence.
The chicken brother in the dark directly transformed into the shape of a bat.
And because I stayed with Lin Zheng during this period, I had a lot of moonflower dew to eat.
The flaws that led to Brother Chicken's transformation became smaller and smaller.
If you don't look closely at it, you won't even be able to see that it still has a little bit of chicken characteristics on it.
After turning into a bat demon, Brother Chicken hurriedly flew there again. It had already found a bat cave.
Then he led the mighty bat army to the shooting location.
Even in broad daylight, one kind of staff saw such a large group of black bats.
And flying at the front, transformed from Chicken Brother, is a bat demon that is almost as big as an eagle.
Still feel extremely scary.
Everyone couldn't help but become nervous.
Even when working, everyone is trembling with fear, and the probability and frequency of mistakes and mistakes are greatly increased.
Even though Lin Zheng had already said that the bat demon was created by him using magic.
But this is normal, after all, chickens can be seen almost everywhere in everyone’s life.
But bats are really not that common.
Therefore, even if Brother Chicken is real, he is also quite abnormal.
But these staff members accepted it much faster than they accepted this bat.
This is enough to prove that Lin Zheng and Brother Ji's original worries were not unreasonable.
The reason why these staff members accepted Brother Ji so quickly.
It's because they think Brother Chicken is just a chicken after all.
Just a smarter chicken.
But if they knew from the beginning that Brother Chicken was a monster, a monster they didn't understand at all and had no way to deal with.
Then things may develop differently.
Brother Ji naturally discovered this situation, and was even more fortunate that he didn't get carried away and say anything when he was drinking before.
Or do some other unnecessary things.
The filming started soon, although the staff were a little scared of the group of bats.
But Lin Zheng is actually under the control of Brother Ji.
This group of bats were quite obedient and did not cause any trouble to anyone or the overall shooting.
The next plot is about Uncle Jiu, played by Lin Zheng, trying to adjust the feng shui in the town.
A special distance was drawn at the top of this mountain to open up a new water source.
But after making the mark, a group of bats took the mark away and inserted it into another place on the top of the mountain.
And buried under that ground is the biggest villain in the entire movie, the Western zombie.
Of course, Lin Zheng would also film the relationship and exchanges between the Western zombie and the bat demon to lay the groundwork...
Try to avoid any loopholes in the plot.
Because Chicken Brother has turned into a bat, he can no longer continue to assume the responsibility of photographer.
So this job naturally fell to Lin Zheng.
Lin Zheng took charge of the overall situation while running up and down personally carrying the camera.
The entire crew, under the guidance of Lin Zheng, was very busy.
On the other side, Zhang Xirou was holding the black cat in her left arm and holding the spirit flower in her right arm.
Sitting beside a tree at the edge of the mountain top, frowning and thinking carefully.
Of course there was a reason why she didn't tell Lin Zheng just now about this flower's second ability.
But the reason is not what Lin Zheng thought!
In fact, this ability of Linghua is not difficult to describe.
But there was no way to tell Lin Zheng!
Because this is an ability that is likely to worry Lin Zheng.
Zhang Xirou frowned and looked carefully at the flower in her arms.
Ever since Lin Zheng gave this flower to her.
She has always kept and cared for it very carefully.
Because Lin Zheng, Li Changsheng and the others could easily see strange traces.
So in most cases, Zhang Xirou does not need to use this flower.
She is like a flower always placed at home.
Every night before going to bed, I inject power into the flowers.
Looking forward to the second flower blooming and awakening the second ability.
Until today, the second flower finally bloomed.
But the second ability awakened made Zhang Xirou, who was full of expectations, suddenly confused.
This ability is very simple to say.
In short, it connects the lives of the owner and the spirit flower.
Once connected, the two will form a state of living and dying together.
But the master can also obtain all the abilities of the spirit flower through this connection.
And it can be used without any time and space restrictions.
Even if she still keeps this flower at home, Zhang Xirou can easily feel what is strange without relying on her eyes!
At the beginning, Zhang Xirou was very excited.
That's why I immediately ran to Lin Zheng. Actually, I wanted to ask how long this so-called spiritual flower could live.
If the life of the flower is long enough, then she will definitely find a way to protect it and exchange it for the flower's ability.
If it were Zhang Xirou in the past, she would definitely choose to do this, and would not even ask about the lifespan of the flower.
Because she no longer has any worries.
But today, Zhang Xirou finally decided not to do that for the time being.
Unconsciously, she was no longer the person who could throw away her life casually.
Of course this is not fear of death. If she really has to sacrifice her life, Zhang Xirou will not hesitate.
But she wanted to die in a more valuable and meaningful way.
Therefore, Zhang Xirou finally decided not to form any contact with Linghua for the time being.
I plan to work harder to take care of it and inject my skills more diligently in the future.
The ability behind the prompting spirit flower will be awakened quickly.
When the time comes, make a decision.
Zhang Xirou also knew that if Lin Zheng learned the truth about all this, he would probably stop her...
It might even destroy this spiritual flower.
That's why she left without saying a word.
She plans to make this decision herself, and of course, she will make a responsible decision.
…
Seven days later.
The promotion of the movie "The Grudge" has officially begun.
And the release time is also set in two months.
For the sake of the ghost organization's plan, Eternal Pictures tried every means possible to circumvent the island country's censorship.
Successfully put this movie online.
But Eternal Pictures is not stupid.
In order to minimize the turmoil that the movie will cause in the island country after it is released.
They promoted it in other countries first.
Domestic publicity in the island country has been postponed for some time.
At the same time, other countries are very vigorous in their propaganda.
However, the propaganda in the island country has been met with much fanfare but little rain.
It was completely made specifically for Lin Zheng to see.
In order to prevent them from facing too much pressure from the citizens of the island country after the movie is officially released and all the content in it is released.
Although Eternal Pictures, as the global leader in the film and television industry, has often hacked other companies in its movies.
But Lin Zheng's "The Grudge" is still a little too dark after all.
However, the effect of Eternal Pictures' manipulation is not very good.
Because in any country’s propaganda, it is very clearly explained.
The film will be released first in the island country.
After all, this is the information age of globalization, and many things cannot be hidden.
therefore,
Even though Eternal Pictures did not provide any explanation, it also did not explain the reasons for doing so.
But the audiences in the island country are still extremely excited!
People on the Internet at home and abroad cheered and shouted, Dad has given us benefits...
